<h1>CLSID List (Windows Class Identifiers)</h1>
<p>Certain special folders within the operating system are identified by unique strings.  Some of these strings can be used with <a href="../commands/FileSelectFile.htm">FileSelectFile</a>, <a href="../commands/FileSelectFolder.htm">FileSelectFolder</a>, and <a href="../commands/Run.htm">Run</a>. For example:</p>
<pre>FileSelectFile, OutputVar,, ::{645ff040-5081-101b-9f08-00aa002f954e}  <em>; Select a file in the Recycle Bin.</em>
FileSelectFolder, OutputVar, ::{20d04fe0-3aea-1069-a2d8-08002b30309d}  <em>; Select a folder within My Computer.</em></pre>

<p>The &quot;Yes&quot; entries in the last column are not authoritative: the <a href="../commands/Run.htm">Run</a> command might support different CLSIDs depending on system configuration. To open a CLSID folder via Run, simply specify the CLSID as the first parameter. For example:</p>
<pre>Run ::{20d04fe0-3aea-1069-a2d8-08002b30309d}  <em>; Opens the &quot;My Computer&quot; folder.</em>
Run ::{645ff040-5081-101b-9f08-00aa002f954e}  <em>; Opens the Recycle Bin.</em>
Run ::{450d8fba-ad25-11d0-98a8-0800361b1103}\My Folder  <em>; Opens a folder that exists inside &quot;My Documents&quot;.</em>
Run <a href="../Variables.htm#MyDocuments">%A_MyDocuments%</a>\My Folder  <em>; Same as the above on most systems.</em></pre>
